A LIFE REMEMBERED

Casey Kasem’s career took him far from his Detroit roots, but he never forgot the place where he first cut his teeth as a deejay – and where he returned several times to celebrate Detroit radio.

Growing up in the Motor City, Kasem was involved with Northwestern High School’s radio club and majored in speech education at Wayne State University. One of his early jobs in college was as an usher at a WXYZ quiz show. Soon, he was getting on-air gigs.

C K was a true "pro" in EVERY sense of the word. He brought us interesting facts and information on the music world and made listening fun. Hope he knew his Savior ... if so, we'll see you in heaven Casey!
